Jiang Ye operated quickly, soon tracing the last signal source of the 0027 rotorcraft.
He opened the satellite map. In the desert of the Third Continent's hinterland, there was a storm zone spanning ten square kilometers. The wind, originating from the sea, had developed into a sandstorm in the desert. The rotorcraft's last signal had vanished precisely at the desert's edge.
Jiang Ye rapidly entered commands, mobilizing all units to cross the sea and head to the Third Continent to search for the missing rotorcraft. The search area was the desert.
The desert was vast, with the currently detected area measured in thousands of mu, making the search quite difficult.
After a brief moment of thought, Jiang Ye pressed the green button on the corner of his desk.
Two minutes later, the sound of hurried high heels echoed as the office door was pushed open, and Liu Jizi rushed in.
"Commander, you called for me?"
"I have something for you to handle," Jiang Ye said. "Have the stationed troops prepare survival kits. These are large packages, to be attached to parachutes. Inside, include a military first-aid kit, twenty bottles of water, candy, fruit, chocolate, canned meat, a charged pistol with ammunition, a notebook and pen, a stamina enhancer, two mobile phones, a signal flare, warm clothing, and a conspicuous, large red silk cloth."
Liu Jizi quickly jotted notes on his phone. "How many should we prepare?"
"Prepare as many as you can, regardless of cost. Have the Air Force take the prepared survival kits and airdrop them into the desert, scattering them as evenly as possible, with one dropped at intervals. When dropping the survival kits," Jiang Ye pondered, "add a smoke generator to each, to make them as visible as possible to people in the desert." Da Feng Novel Network
"Understood! I'll go do it now!" Liu Jizi turned and left.
Jiang Ye's approach was simple: a massive airdrop of supplies. If the missing rotorcraft had merely crashed, and Wu Junmin and Wan Xiucheng were still alive, they might encounter the airdrops.
The water and food in the survival kits would ensure their temporary survival, the first-aid kit would help treat their external injuries, and the mobile phones, signal flare, and red silk cloth would be used to contact the searching forces.
However, finding the missing individuals in a short time remained a slim hope.
A quarter of the Third Continent's area was desert, almost an ocean of sand, and it was experiencing a sandstorm. It was possible the crashed aircraft was already buried by sand.
Moreover, rotorcraft were too small for satellites to detect; after all, even slightly larger rocks looked similar to a rotorcraft.
The outlook was grim!
But everything that could be done was being done. There was no use in worrying; they could only wait for all troops to land and conduct a slow search. Jiang Ye drank a cup of tea, taking a few minutes to calm himself. He clicked on his desk screen, continuing to process work.
A large backlog of corporate resumes had accumulated, a total of 204.
Jiang Ye reviewed them one by one, approving those that should be approved and marking those that shouldn't with an 'X'.
Indeed, this batch of corporate resumes had some interesting entries. After reviewing only about ten, he came across a particularly intriguing corporate resume. Jiang Ye leaned closer to the screen, reading carefully.
【Company: "Dongyi" Height Enhancement Service Company】
【Company Scale: Market Value 2.29 Trillion】
【Company Reputation: Good】
【Remarks: "Dongyi" Height Enhancement Service Company is a medical and aesthetic company dedicated to human height enhancement. It has developed various safe and reliable methods for increasing height, meeting the height enhancement needs of eighty million people annually. For specific cooperation matters, please click "Agree" in the bottom right corner to add me for communication. We look forward to cooperating with you.】
Jiang Ye had to privately message these seemingly high-risk high-tech companies. He clicked to add a friend, and the request was accepted instantly. The other party greeted him warmly.
Dongyi: "General Commander Jiang, hello! I am the head of Dongyi Height Enhancement Company on Nebula M78. Your planet's population has exceeded one hundred thousand, with immense development potential. Our company is very eager to establish a presence and provide height enhancement services to your citizens."
Jiang Ye: "Does your height enhancement service make children grow taller, or adults grow taller?"
Dongyi: "Our main business is divided into three parts: first, adolescent growth promotion; second, adult height enhancement; and third, elderly height retention. Apart from infants and the critically ill, we can provide height enhancement for all age groups."
Jiang Ye: "How high is the safety of your technology?"
Dongyi: "This depends on the specific height enhancement package chosen by the client. The more expensive the package, the higher the safety and the better the results. Please wait a moment, and I will send you a package list so you can understand."
Three seconds later, a table popped up.
【Package A: Dietary Supplement Method】
【Package Price: 2000 Yuan per week】
【Package Details: Through regular blood tests and DNA analysis, a personalized dietary supplement formula is created for the client. This includes everything from daily meals to potent health supplements. Suitable for children and the elderly. Results are average, but safety is the highest.】
Jiang Ye caught a whiff of a scam. He had seen many height enhancement advertisements in his childhood, specifically selling very expensive health supplements that claimed to increase height but had no effect. The so-called height enhancement capsules might have contained inferior flour.
However, the packages below were more interesting.
【Package B: Gene Therapy】
【Package Price: 250,000 Yuan - 3,805,000 Yuan】
【Package Details: Through detailed genetic testing, methods for height enhancement are explored at the genetic level. This involves temporary minor adjustments and modifications to individual genes, artificial stimulation of dominant and recessive gene expression, and implantation of gene vesicles to achieve height enhancement. Suitable for all age groups. After the treatment is completed, the individual's genes will not be permanently altered; the modified genes will be reverted after height enhancement. The duration of the entire treatment varies from person to person, ranging from 1 month to 4 years.】
【Package C: Rapid Elongation Therapy】
【Package Price: 6,000,000 Yuan】
【Package Details: Through methods such as gravity therapy, artificial bones, artificial organs, temporary genetic modification, body printing, brain stimulation, and secondary development, rapid height elongation is achieved. Height can be increased by more than 20 centimeters within 2-8 days. Malignant gene knockout will be used to reduce the incidence of diseases caused by excessive height.】
Jiang Ye: "How much can your technology increase the height of adults whose development has already stopped?"
Dongyi: "This is uncertain and depends on the individual's situation. The reasons why each person's height is limited are different. Some are due to insufficient nutrition in childhood, some are limited by their genes, and some have glandular abnormalities, etc. However, according to our company's database, the average customer gains 12 centimeters in height under our treatment."
Jiang Ye: "What would be the consequences if a treatment accident occurs?"
The other side was silent for a moment, likely because this question was difficult to answer.
Jiang Ye: "I understand. You can establish a presence, but you must clearly inform customers of the treatment risks in advance. Every treatment must be recorded and submitted to the police for filing. I will send people to conduct both overt and covert investigations."
